Yo que se :)

We inherited this from the past.


From

    # Double quotes because CPP needs to be expanded
    for CPP in "$CC -E" "$CC -E -traditional-cpp" "/lib/cpp"

To

    # Double quotes because CPP needs to be expanded
    set X "$CC -E" "$CC -E -traditional-cpp" "$ac_tool_prefixcpp"
    test $cross_compiling || set "$@" /lib/cpp
    shift
    for CPP
